PERIOD COVERED:  0000Z (UTC) 05/04/95 - 0000Z (UTC) 05/05/95

Daily Status Report as of 125/0000Z

1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed WF/PC-2  5476 (Continuum Snapshots of 3CR Radio Galaxies) 

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make snapshot images of radio galaxy 3C411.0
as part of a continuum survey and to study the galaxy's morphology. The
observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.2 Completed FOS/RD 5501 (The Structure of the Coma Cluster: A Search for
Cool Absorbing Gas)

     The Faint Object spectrograph (Red Side) was used to make observations
of the intergalactic medium within the Coma Cluster by studying the spectra
in the line of sight from QSO-1258+2. They are looking for evidence of
absorption from cool gas within the cluster. The observations were executed
as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.3 Completed WF/PC-2 5370 (HST Medium-Deep Survey: Cycle 4 Medium, High
Galactic Latitude)

       The WF/PC-2 was used in parallel with the prime science observations
to make high galactic latitude observations as part of a medium-deep sky
survey. The observations were completed as planned, and no problems were
reported. 

   1.4 Completed GHRS/2 5466 (The Interaction Between Io and The Plasma
Torus)

        The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side Two) was used to make Echelle
spectrographic observations of the plasma torus which is a result of the
interaction of the planet Jupiter and its moon Io. Of particular interest is
the O II emission line at 2471 A0. The observations were completed and
scheduled, and no anomalies were reported.

   1.5 Completed FOS/BL 6146 (FOS Location of Spectra and Aperture - Part 2)

     The Faint Object Spectrograph (Blue Side) was used to conduct a test to
determine the repeatability of positioning the filter-grating wheel. All
observations were internal. A wave length calibration and a Dark image were
also taken. All observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies
were noted.

   1.6 Completed FOS/RD 5125 (Velocity Dispersions in the Nuclei of Giant
Ellipticals)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Red Side) was used with its small
apertures to make observations of the giant elliptical galaxy NGC-4486 to map
its stellar dispersion and rotation in the galaxy's central region. The
observations were completed as planned, and no problems were reported. 

   1.7 Completed WF/PC-2 5369 (HST Medium-Deep Survey: Cycle 4 Medium, High
Galactic  Latitude) 

      The WF/PC-2 made a series of observations of high latitude objects as
part of a medium deep sky survey. The observations were taken in parallel
with other prime science observations. The observations were completed as
scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.8 Completed WF/PC-2 5446 (The Nuclei of Nearby S0 and Spiral Galaxies: A
PC Snapshot Imaging)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the core region of galaxy
NGC-4242 to provide statistics on the nuclear cusps, stellar condensations,
and inner stellar disks and dust lanes. The observations were executed as
scheduled, and no anomalies were noted. 

   1.9 Complete FOC/96 5185 (Magellanic Cloud Planetary Nebulae: Cycle 4)

   The Faint Object Camera (F/96) was used to make observations of the
planetary nebula SMC-N5 which is located in the Small Magellanic cloud. The
proposers plan to find it mass and age by using the information obtained from
these observations and others made from the ground. The observations were
completed as planned, and no problems were reported.

   1.10 Completed WF/PC-2 5091 (GTO High Latitude Parallel Program: Cycle 4)

       The WF/PC-2 was used in parallel with the prime science observations
to make high galactic latitude observations greater than +/-30 degrees. The
observations were executed as scheduled, and no problems were reported.

2.0 FLIGHT OPERATIONS SUMMARY:

   2.1 Guide Star Acquisitions: 

                            Scheduled Acquisitions : 7
                                        Successful : 6

	FGS#2 GS acquisition failed to CT at 125/0819Z due to
	search radius limit being exceeded.  FGS#2 then dropped
	from acquisition procedure.  CT achieved on FGS#1.  Three
	subsequent re-acquisitions guided in CT.  Attitude error
	negligible.

                          Scheduled Reacquisitions : 7
                                        Successful : 7

   2.2 FHST Updates: 

                              Scheduled : 16
                             Successful : 16

   2.3 Significant HSTARs: None

   2.4 Operations Notes: 

       The 13 associated FOC RTCS loads were not contained in the operational
catalog with one of the NSSC-1 loads.  The catalog was re-built by PASSOPS,
and the NSSC-1 load and the RTCSs were successfully uplinked.  HSTAR 5201
documented this procedural error.

3.0 SIGNIFICANT FORTHCOMING EVENTS: 

        Nothing at this time.
